Softphone dialing URL for external applications
I’m most interested in a URL dialing string for making calls from GoTo. Examples of these values from other systems are: rcapp://r/call?number=[PhoneNumber] (Ring Central) callto:[PhoneNum...
- 2 years agoThe feedback I got is that it seems like a bad configuration. The devices tab in the Admin Portal needs to have the device with you assigned to it. Once this is done you will be able to select the desk phone in the line selector of the Desktop app and this will trigger calls ringing the desk phone.

Hi jarancio, There is!
From the extensions selector (bottom left of the Voice section) you should see 2 options for any extension with a physical phone linked. e.g. 0412 on Softphone or 0412 on Polycom VVX
By selecting the option on Polycom it will sync the app up with your desk phone, so if you receive a call it will appear in the app and if you initiate a call in the app it will be triggered on the desk phone.

Sounds promising Kate. In my softphone I dug under Settings > Voice > Device buttons and it says:
We did not find a desk phone linked to your account
My GoTo account does have the Polycom but something is missing. I have to link the softphone with the device. How to do this, I am not sure.

jarancio did you check out this article?

This article only showed me how to plug in the phone and PC. Do I need to daisy chain for the hardphone to show up on the softphone devices?

Apologies for the confusion and if I'm not understanding, is the issue regarding adding a device? If not can you let me know the steps you took.
